19:45:Session 2: Coming to terms with C++ in a huge financial application (Cosmin Cremarenco)Murex is a large financial application – ~15M lines of code of C/C++. Migrating from C to C++ has come with enormous challenges. Essential components had to be upgraded to what a C++ programmer naturally expects today. A legacy object framework based on C had to be deprecated in favour of C++, the build system had to be upgraded, proper testing put in place, processes devised to how third-party libraries are introduced in our codebase and used and, finally, a performant serialization system that is in-line with today’s expectations on latency and throughput when communicating between components written in different or same programming language.
